The Trinity Cathedral, built between 1775 and 1778, is a historical Orthodox religious building and the largest wooden church in Ukraine. The cathedral is an outstanding work of art of Ukrainian wooden architecture and a monument of Ukrainian Baroque. It was built by Cossacks without the use of metal nails. The church was restored in 2012.
The Transfiguration Cathedral was built mainly in the early 19th century and restored as faithfully as possible in the 1970s. The church was planned as the main church of the newly conquered Novorossiya region after the 5th Russian-Turkish war (1768-1774) and was to surpass even St. Peter's Basilica in Rome. The cathedral was built in the style of classicism between 1830 and 1835. During the Second World War, the building suffered considerable damage and was only restored in 1975.
The cemetery was established in the early 19th century. The cemetery was once restored. All the tombstones dates to the pre-war period.
The Cathedral of God the Merciful Father in Zaporizhia is a Roman Catholic concathedral between 1999 and 2004. The church was designed by Ukrainian architects from Zaporizhia, modelled on St Peter's Basilica in Rome.
